How Many Smells Can You Smell?

Psalm 45:8

"All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad."

Until recently it was commonly thought that humans can smell approximately 10,000 different odors. But that's no longer thought to be true. So how many different odors can that nose in the middle of...

Creation or Evolution? As Plain as the Nose on Your Face!

We don't mean to get personal, but we want to talk to you about your nose. Call us "nosey" if you must, but we want to ask atheists if evolution can account for their nose. Frankly, we think Darwinism stinks - figuratively speaking - but we met someone recently in our Facebook group who confirmed that it smells in other ways as well.

Keith Duncan, a scientist involved in solid state electrochemistry and ion transport, told us, "Some of my colleagues are developing electrochemical sensors to make an artificial ‘nose' for industrial applications. Even though their goal is MUCH LESS sensitive than a human nose, the project is still extremely complex."

We asked Keith to go into more detail about this complexity, and he readily complied. "Each sensor in the ‘nose' has to detect a specific chemical," he said. "But they often have different optimal performance temperatures. And when combined into a ‘nose', they usually have poor selectivity (ability to uniquely identify a particular chemical). Also, the extremely high number of permutations of metal oxides that can be used as active materials in the cathode make it very difficult to find suitable ones and eliminate those that are unsuitable."

Keith concluded by saying, "I think those researching this area would find it hard to believe that any nose, whether artificial or real, could be developed by accident/chance."

From this we conclude that even your nose knows that it is the handiwork of an intelligent Designer.

Follow your nose! Don't follow an evolutionist, or you'll be sniffing down the wrong trail, just like he does.

Evolutionists readily admit that they have no explanation for how things got here in the first place. They postulate a large number of inconsistent and ludicrous happenstances, but they have absolutely no explanation for how life got here. Instead of being humbled by their ignorance, they seem to be proud of it. Talk to an evolutionist, and he will arrogantly say "Big Bang" is NOT part of his science and that evolution does NOT make any claims for how life began.

So, evolutionists have no explanation for how things got here, but they think they are experts on the complexity and perfect suitability of living things and their environments. In sum, evolutionists can't explain anything, but they want to claim only they have the facts.

We have both the explanation and the facts. Everything was created for us out of the generosity of the true and living God, Jesus Christ. The intricacies of life in all their perfection are gifts from a loving Creator. The breadth, the depth, the height of creation are all described in the Bible, which is an eye-witness testimony of the greatness of our God. Those are incontrovertible facts, observable in real time, all around us. They are capable of being seen, felt, and yes, smelled.

So, if something reeks of idiocy like evolution does, trust your nose and steer clear of the stench.
